Petrol station in local slang (5)

I believe the answer is:

servo

(Other definitions for servo that I've seen before include "Powered mechanism that amplifies force" , "Assisting motor" , "car mechanism" , "Mechanism augmenting force or motion" , "Power mechanism" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
